Tonight’s the big night – there will be a toga party at the Voodoo Room, Hoop’s new bar in the basement of Orleans on Front. It will start at 10 PM and run until 3 AM. If you’ve never been, the restaurant is at 94 S. Front across from the Butcher Shop. Look for a set of stairs leading down to the basement, lit up by a disco light. There will be contests for the sexiest and ugliest togas (I’m a judge). Togas will be provided for the toga-challenged. $2 PBR cans, and yes, bartender Lauren will have a toga on, I’ve been told.
Memphis takes on UAB tonight at the FedExForum at 7:00. Not sure where I’ll go to watch the game. I have advance knowledge of the Fire Sale at the Saucer – Leinie Red, not one of my favorites. Considering making a rare Calhoun’s appearance for the game, then heading north to Voodoo Room afterward.
Finally upgraded my blog to the latest version of WordPress, 2.7, this morning. I wanted to wait until a slow time because I knew my blog would be down for 15-20 minutes while files transferred to the server. The new system is great and so much easier to work with. The WP development team, including Downtowner Otto, did a great job with it.
No plans for today until 7… I’ll probably work on the personal finance software project today and then take Tuesday off as a trade to watch the inauguration.
